This combination of Bach's and Berlin's music can also be heard in Peter Breiner's mashup on Naxos's Christmas Goes Baroque II from 1993.

Canon on White Christmas
Below is a recording I made of a canon -- at the sixth above -- that I discovered and arranged using the melody for Irving Berlin's song "White Christmas." It works rather well: I made one modification in the second half of measure 30. The bass line is a nod to that of the Air from Bach's Orchestral Suite No. 3.

Malinowski has a canon on the same theme, but at the fifth below instead! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pT8PThtxsaI
ReplyDeleteI guess it's no suprise though, the song can be harmonized with a downward circle of fifths, which Malinowski imitates outright with his interval and time distance. But since the is mostly 8's and 3's above that harmony a third higher works just as well, the occasional m7 is nicer if anything.
A bunch of jazz standards that are really elaborated CoF's support this treatment. (Autumn leaves is great.)
